Reaction of p-Oxobis[(trifluoromethanesulfonato)(phenyl)iodine(III)] with Group 14 Propargyl Derivatives and a Propargyl Ether Daniel A. Gately, Thomas A. Luther, Jack R. Norton,* Mary M. Miller, and Oren P. Anderson Department of Chemistry, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado 80623 Received June 1, 1992

The treatment of 4,4dimethyl-l-(trimethylsilyl)-2-pntyne (4a)or 4,4dimethyl-l-(tributylstannyl)-2-pntyne (ab)with p-oxobie[ (trifluoromethanesulfoaato)henyl)iodine(m)] (2) gim 4,4dimethyl-l-(%iodophenyl)-2-pentyne (9). Deuterium labeling has confiied that propargylation of 2 occurs ortho to the position originally occupied by the I(II1). The addition of 2 equiv of 4a to 2 at -80 "C results in 2 equiv each of 9, trimethylsilyl triflate

(lo), and tert-butylallene (11) and 1 equiv of hexamethyldisiloxane(12);in contrast, the addition of 2 equiv of

4b to 2 at -30 "C results in 2 equiv each of 9 and tributylstannyl triflate (16). A mechanism that explains these product ratios ie proposed. The reaction of 2-0,0'-d2and 4b shows the negligible intramolecular kinetic isotope effect (0.99 f 0.01) expected for what is in effect a Claisen rearrangement. The addition of 2 to 2-butynyl (trimethylsily1)methyl ether (20) affords the single product 21 resulting from anti addition and control of regiochemistry by the ether oxygen. Attempts to desilylate 21 to an allenyl triflate result in the regeneration of the propargyl ether 20.

Introduction Wenes are directly and indirectly involved in substitution and elimination processc-, sigmatropic rearrangemente, and cycloaddition reactions with allenes, ketenes, olefins, enones, and heterocycles.' An allenyl triflate or iodinane would be synthetically equivalent to an sp2carbocation 1 in the m e way that vinyl triflates2 and iodinanes3are equivalent to sp2carbocations and alkynyl esters: iodinanes,6 and diiodinanesa are equivalent to sp carbocations.

iodinane p-oxobis[ (trifluoromethanesulfonato)(phenyl)iodine(III)](2) (Zefirov's reagent)? The reaction of simple olefins with 2 is known to afford vicinal ditriflates by syn additionFs presumably by the process in eq 1. With alkynes one would expect the process to stop after anti addition and formation of a vinyliodonium triflate as in eq 2.

(10) In the interest of clarity, the schemes and eqs in thie paper show the iodine(II1) atom covalently bound to the triflate oxygen (I-OTD. However, such bonds are more ionic (I+OTf)than coyalent (see ref Sa, 6, and the X-ray structure of 21 in this work), and the triflates may be fully dissociated under some conditions.

We then treated 3 with a variety of bases in an effort to deprotonate the carbon fl t- the iodonio leaving group and form an allenyl triflate. The result, however, was largely the regeneration of 3-hexyne (Scheme I). We then treated the propargylsilane 4a and the propargylstannane 4b with 2. We expected that the iodonium-bridged intermediate 6 would be most stable as the carbocation 6 stabilized by fl silicon or tin," and we thus expected the product of the reaction of 4 and 2 to be 7 as depicted in Scheme 11. (We hoped to desilylate or destannylate 7 to the allenyliodinane 8.) To our surprise the result, shown in eqs 4 and 5, was the formation of the rearranged propargyliodoarene 9.

While we were investigating the mechanism of the formation of 9 and the reasons why 4a and 4b reacted differently with 2, Ochiai and co-workers published their observation that propqgliodoarenes were generated from the reaction of monoaryl i o d i i e s with propargylsilanes, -germanes, or -stannanes.12 They proposed that desilylation of an iodonium cation intermediate led to an allenyl iodinane and that an iodonio Claisen rearrangement of the latter led to 9 (Scheme III).12 Although they were unable to isolate the allenyliodinane, they did (i) find that the propargyliodoarenes were formed intramolecularly,12(ii) determine the regioaelectivity of the orthopropargylation of some ring-substituted monoaryl iodinanes,12and (iii) isolate mete-substituted propargyl iodoarenes (and in some cases ipso-substituted propargyl arenes) when both ortho positions of the monoaryl iodinane substrate were occupied by alkyl s~bstituents.'~J~ In this paper we explore the differences between the reaction of the propargylsilane 4a with 2 (eq 4)and that of the propargylstannane 4b (eq 5). We also report a deuterium labeling result that establishes the site of propargylation of 2 in the absence of substituents and the intramolecular kinetic isotope effect for the ortho~~

A Novel Synthesis of 2-Aminochromones via Phosgeniminium Salts Joel Morris,* Donn G. Wishka, and Yue Fang Medicinal Chemistry Research, The Upjohn Company, Kalamazoo, Michigan 49001

Received June 25, 1992

A novel method for the synthesis of antiplatelet 2-aminochromones making use of the reaction of 2'hydroxyacetophenone-BFz complexes with phosgeniminium chlorides has been developed. Aqueous hydrolysis of the intermediate j3-chlorovinylogous amide-BF2 complex affords the 2-aminochromone in good yield, without the need for chromatographic purification.

Interest in the 2-aminochromone class of compounds relates to ita novel antiplatelet activity.'T2 Research in this 0022-3263/92/1957-6502$03.00/0
